While I typically stick to discussions of policy issues, broadband, and emerging technology, when I see some really good news about cable and our ongoing efforts to improve customer service, I have to talk about it.

• Customer service
• Performance and reliability
• Cost of service
• Billing
• Offerings and promotions

For the the second year, cable companies won all four regions. The latest study proves what we’ve said for some time – cable is your best value for telephone service. You can learn more about cable telephony here.
